Barletta - Santa Maria Maggiore

 
A little way to the northeast of the Museo Civico, at the end of the narrow Via del Duorno, the continuation of the Corso Garibaldi, is the cathedral of Santa Maria Maggiore. The facade and campanile (13th century) are built in Romanesque style, while the other parts of the building, including the choir, were added in the 14th-15th centuries. The church contains a tomb of the count of Barby and Mühlingen (d. 1566), with an inscription in German and a fine pulpit and tabernacle (both 13th century).
